NEW at GoSee : QUENTIN DÉCAILLET, Stills, Swiss Alps; We show you his personal work 'Beauty in the Smallest Details ' which captures the journey of an ant on a Dior lipstick
NEW at GoSee is QUENTIN DÉCAILLET, a product and beauty photographer based in the Swiss Alps, whose job often takes him to Lausanne, Geneva and Paris. He sees his work as a bridge between technical precision and artistic narrative. About the series shown here, Quentin says :
"Finding inspiration isn’t always easy. There are times when you want to create, but the ideas just don’t come. Over the past few years, I’ve found that going back to my childhood memories, emotions, and experiences has been one of the most powerful sources of inspiration. This series is a great example.
I was looking at this beautiful Dior lipstick, trying to come up with an idea… but nothing. I tried scrolling through Pinterest and Instagram, but they no longer inspire me. They’re great when you're starting out, but I’ve come to realize that true inspiration doesn’t come from imitation. So, I stepped outside to clear my head, into my garden, where I started observing the insects, just as I did when I was a child.
That’s when it hit me: Why are insects often seen as ugly, gross, or even scary? Why not let others see the beauty I see in them? The thought lingered: Would people appreciate them more if they wore makeup or donned a fancy outfit, just like we do? These images were born from this playful reflection on beauty, perception, and finding inspiration in the unexpected. They were shot using a real ant (a rather large one) found in my garden.
No CGI, AI, or composite was used to create these photographs." Quentin Décaillet, photographer.
Quentin's path to photography began in New York, where he discovered art, creativity and technology bundled in the medium of photography. His style features a meticulous approach to lighting and a graphic elegance that highlights the essence of his subjects. With black and dark shades as central elements in many of his visual compositions, Quentin's images stand out with their bold contrasts and refined details.
Over the years, Quentin has collaborated with esteemed clients such as MAC Cosmetics, Nespresso, Koenig & Bauer, and Mizensir. His work is known for conveying both the character and the story behind each product, making it distinctive in the competitive landscape of beauty and product photography.
Quentin is always excited to collaborate with new clients and explore creative opportunities.
